Environmental Vulnerability and Resilience
Environmental vulnerability and resilience are concepts that play a key role in environmental management and the quest for sustainable development. Originally developed by ecology and hazards assessment, environmental vulnerability and resilience are now of interest to many disciplines, governments, companies, and enterprises. Reduction of environmental vulnerability and improvement of resilience can be a challenge given the often complex and fre…
Attitudes towards homosexuals in seven Caribbean countries
Between 2000 and 2015, the number of people newly infected with HIV in the Caribbean decreased by 76% and HIV-related deaths by 42%. The number of people living with HIV (PLHIV) on anti-retroviral therapy (ART) increased from near zero to 50% (44% to 57%) in 2015. In many Caribbean countries communities of men-who-have-sex-with-other-men (MSM) have higher incidence and prevalence of HIV. They are often stigmatized and subjected to both social and…
Forcible Stops
A recent federal district court decision found that the New York City Police Department engaged in unconstitutional policing. Officers stopped millions of minority young men over the span of several years. Most of those stopped were innocent of any wrongdoing. This article uses qualitative and quantitative research methods to investigate these inequities, examining the views of both the police and those who were stopped. The authors find that pre…

No Back Door
No Back Door* Christine Barrow (bio) The man strides forward, his eyes on the sea. He favors his left leg and avoids the soft sand that would suck in his bare feet and slow him down. He looks up and tilts his head, as if he’s sniffing the air or listening for something. He swipes his forearm across his brow and scans the surface of the waves, from left to right and back. He seems oblivious of the setting sun’s golden shimmer from horizon to shore…

Is palynology a credible climate proxy in the Subantarctic
Pollen and spore analysis is the most successfully used palaeobotanical discipline for reconstructing Holocene vegetation and climate history throughout the world. Subantarctic islands are very specific areas. They are located in the circum-Antarctic Southern Ocean in latitudes that are under strong influence of the southern westerly winds, and are characterised by a treeless, phanerogam-poor flora. Palynological research on many of these islands…

Environmental conflict mediation and social impact assessment
How is environmental conflict addressed by SIA
Evaluating the Social Impacts of Environmental Change and the Environmental Impacts of Social Change
This paper presents an introductory review of social impact assessment (SIA), focusing on its potential for environmental managers. The origins, value, weaknesses, and principles are considered, and the process of SIA is briefly outlined. The SIA process is especially useful for those pursuing sustainable development, those interested in natural resources development, urban environments, the potential for and consequences of the relocation of peo…
Contesting the Rhetoric of 'Black Family Breakdown' from Barbados
The paper contests the persistent rhetoric of "black family breakdown", defined in contemporary Barbadian discourse as the fragmentation of both the Afro-Caribbean extended family, and also the Euro-centred nuclear unit based on marriage and co-residence which has been consistently and for generations promoted as the model to which the black population should aspire. Separating myth from reality on selected issues which are highlighted as evidenc…
Excavations within the Medieval Town at New Radnor, Powys, 1991–92
Excavations just inside the main West gate of the town, a plantation of probably the later twelfth century, confirm that parts of the town that were intensively occupied in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries were abandoned as the settlement shrank and diminished in status from the later fifteenth century onwards. The earliest buildings, founded on earth-fast posts appear to have been replaced by ones of sill-beam construction during possibly…
